Poem of the Week for: 12/03/2019 - 12/09/2019

Famous poet Christina Rossetti was born this week (on December 5) back in 1830. Celebrate her birthday with this poem that is a reflection on meaningful aspects of life. She puts tangible and intangible things side by side to convey the depth and frailty of life. We will all experience these at one point or another. We will all face heavy moments in life, realize how quickly time is moving, see the frailty of life, and ponder deep thoughts.

What are deep? The ocean and truth.
